Do yourself a favour uninstal outlook 98, then either buy a version that is
fully compatible with Vista - I'm not even sure Outlook 98 qualifies as an
upgrade path - or revert to Windows Mail
Outlook 98 has not been supported by MS for some considerable years, and was
origonally available free

Ok. Thanks for the tip. I was just trying to save some #

What are you going to use Outlook for? Email? Have you tried Windows mail
(or the upgrade to live mail client). Calendar? Vista includes a calendar
which is very much like Outlook 2007's. It can do so much more than Outlook
98 ever can.

Thanks so much. I'll try Windows Mail.

The clients that come with vista are free and not bad at all. The new live
mail client is also free and includes spell checking, even if office is not
installed.
